It’s Monday again. In fact, it’s the last Monday in May of 2025, the end of a very small and arbitrary era. It’s also Memorial Day, a day on which I don’t like to say, “Happy Memorial Day,” since it’s a day of remembrance of the fallen, but I do wish you well on this holiday.
I don’t really have anything to write about today. My brain is borderline completely fried, not least because no matter how often I use the bathroom, I still feel like I have to go, and urgently. So, I haven’t been getting much sleep, even for me, and what little I get is interrupted every half an hour to an hour.
This is all nothing new, and I’m sure it’s terribly boring for all of you readers. I do apologize. I’m basically a boring person.
I have my appointment with the urologist tomorrow, and hopefully that will spell the end of this current situation, at least. If not, I don’t know what I’m going to do.
Actually, I don’t know what I’m going to do either way. I am fairly clueless and at a loss. I don’t know what to do about the future or whatever. Life is just so uncomfortable all the time. The Buddhists underestimated things when they said merely that life is inherently unsatisfactory. Life is frequently quite a bit more than unsatisfactory.
That’s not exactly a rip-roaring insight, is it? My brain is so foggy and fatigued. I’m glad that work has at least been productive over these past two weeks, given how uncomfortable and worn out I am. I’m glad that the discomfort isn’t a necessary prerequisite for work being productive. If it were, I’m afraid that I would be forced to withdraw my services, so to speak.
Ugh, I’m tired of writing these posts on my smartphone. It continues to irritate my thumb joints, and I make so many typos because the “keys” are not suited to adult male hands, and probably not to adult female hands, either. I should just bring my little laptop computer again instead of being lazy.
Of course, that computer is getting on a bit, and frankly, so is this phone. But I really don’t feel like replacing either of them. I’ve had the thought, and the intention, that they, like everything else, should be the last of such things that I own.
I don’t know. I can’t think of anything else to say. Move along, folks, nothing left to see here today, you know?
Anyway, try to have a good day and a good week.
